Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I am 26 years old. I would like to ask, does drinking soy milk affect menstrual disorders? I heard that soy milk contains a lot of estrogen. So I wonder if this could affect menstruation. I hope you can help me clarify this.Doctor's answer:
Irregular menstruation and frequently drinking soy milk have no relation to each other. Drinking soy milk regularly can be beneficial to the human body. Soy milk has the functions of nourishing yin, moisturizing dryness, clearing heat, preventing summer heat and lowering body temperature, refreshing the mouth and quenching thirst, dispelling cold and warming the stomach. It is generally suitable for most people. Irregular menstruation is often related to endocrine disorders and catching colds. It is recommended to take Wuji Baifeng Pills orally to regulate the menstrual cycle and treat it. During the menstrual period, pay attention to preventing cold and avoiding catching colds. Eat less extremely cold and hard foods.
